The Twelve Wild Geese, presented by Ensemble Galilei

Rescheduled to October 17th at 3pm.
The Twelve Wild Geese is an ancient tale of a princess and her brothers, told for centuries across cultures from Ireland to Norway and Myanmar to Denmark, and published in an Irish folk tale collection by W. B. Yeats. Refashioned by David Novak and Ensemble Galilei, the work explores universal themes of loyalty, courage, love, and hope through a vivid fusion of storytelling and music that celebrates creativity, humor, and the joy of art in the making.
Known for pushing the boundaries of multidisciplinary performance, Ensemble Galilei has spent over two decades blending words, music, and visual art through collaborations with figures and institutions such as Neal Conan, the Hubble Space Telescope Institute, National Geographic, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and NPR, culminating in this deeply collaborative project with Novak.
A recipient of the National Storytelling Network’s Circle of Excellence Award, Novak brings masterful theatrical presence and emotional depth to the tale, fully embodying each character and captivating audiences of all ages with his immersive, passionate storytelling, creating an experience that bridges past and present in a way that is both timeless and profoundly meaningful.
This is going to be a magical, family friendly performance!
Doors open at 2:30 p.m. Sponsored by Camden Maine Stay and 40 Paper.
